Lyrics

Wake up to a new day’s light

Expressing the start of a new day.

God damn I must have had a real good time

Reflecting on a good time from the previous night.

Cause my head it keeps a wondering, as I remember the night

Feeling disoriented and recalling events from the night before.

I wake up hours later to a day gone by

Waking up much later and realizing time has passed.


God damn I hate to feel this way

Expressing dislike for the current emotional state.

Oh, I tell myself time and time again

Self-reflection on living patterns and questioning them.

I think man why do I live this way

Questioning the lifestyle and choices made.

Not again, not again, so tell me why

Expressing frustration and seeking an explanation for repeating mistakes.


Why can’t tomorrow be tomorrow and nothing else

Wishing for a straightforward and uneventful tomorrow.

Tell me why can’t tomorrow bring tomorrow and nothing else

Repeating the desire for a simple and predictable future.

Tell me why can’t tomorrow bring tomorrow and nothing else

Emphasizing the desire for a future without complications.

Tell me why can’t tomorrow bring tomorrow and nothing else

Reiterating the wish for an uncomplicated tomorrow.


Another day, another dollar, oh so they say

Describing the routine of another day with financial concerns.

I head down to my favorite bar

Heading to a familiar bar as part of the daily routine.

I see Danny my old friend

Meeting an old friend named Danny at the bar.

Somehow, I knew that he’d be there

Anticipating Danny's presence at the bar.


They say man why do you live that way

Responding to questions about lifestyle choices with laughter and deception.

As I laugh and begin my lies

Laughing and starting a cycle of lies about personal choices.

I think man why do I act that way

Reflecting on acting in a certain way and questioning it.

Not again, not again, so tell me why

Expressing frustration and seeking an explanation for repeating behavioral patterns.


Why can’t tomorrow be tomorrow and nothing else

Repeating the desire for a straightforward and uneventful tomorrow.

Tell me why can’t tomorrow bring tomorrow and nothing else

Reiterating the wish for an uncomplicated and predictable future.

Tell me why can’t tomorrow bring tomorrow and nothing else

Emphasizing the desire for a future without complications.

Tell me why can’t tomorrow bring tomorrow and nothing else

Repeating the wish for an uncomplicated tomorrow.


The morning after

Referring to the aftermath of a night of revelry.

The morning after

Repeating the theme of the morning after a night of enjoyment.

Wake up to a new day’s light

Reiterating the start of a new day.

God damn I must have had a real good time

Recalling a good time from the previous night again.

Wake up to a new day’s light

Emphasizing the beginning of another day.

God damn I must have had a real good time

Reiterating the realization of having had a great time the night before.
